Perennial Adventure
Advent,
older, and more pervasive, than Christmas
I presume.
Why so?
Advent's lack of glaring light
feels more of an invite
to prepare for winter's new year planning
by reviewing what went toxically wrong
and occasionally
mysteriously right.
A time not yet for sorting ecstatic harvest seeds
of early year insight
but deeper hibernating
into all not not quite entirely wrong potentials,
where cooperative perennial images delight
while capital's mortal reasoning
remains logistically wrong,
a song
too soon sadly sung
in nihilistic
dissonant keys
of double-binding night,
approaching terrorizing fright
vigorously denied
before adventurously accepting
heuristic gains of ultra-violet bright
Into Advent darkness
recomposing next year's nurture lights,
ecologically learned evolving cycles
of nutrition
theologically deep revolutionary recycles
speaking healthy wealth of Advent's
annual 2020 resolutions.
